Paraguay's agricultural production saw an 11% increase in 2020, rebounding from a major drought in the previous year, with a total production volume of 26,270,000 tons. The recovery was primarily driven by a 24% increase in the production of semi-perennial crops like cassava and sugar cane. The country also saw higher production of soybeans, corn, wheat, rice, canola, sunflower, sesame, and other crops, leading to a 3% increase in the production of seven granary items compared to the previous season.
